OBJECTIVE To investigate the improvement mechanism of Huatan tongmai decoction on rats with polycystic ovary syndrome （PCOS） by regulating autophagy through phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase（PI3K）/protein kinase B（AKT）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR） pathway. METHODS A total of 40 rats were randomly divided into blank group （purified water）， model group （purified water）， traditional Chinese medicine group [Huatan tongmai decoction， 24 g/（kg·d）] and chemical drug group [metformin， 0.16 g/（kg·d）]， with 10 rats in each group. Except for blank group， other groups were given a combination of high-fat diet and intragastric administration of 1 mg/kg letrozole suspension to establish PCOS rat model. After modeling， they were given relevant medicine or water intragastrically， once a day， for 42 consecutive days. After the last administration， the pathological and ultrastructural changes of ovarian tissue were observed. The levels of follicle stimulating hormone （FSH）， testosterone （T）， estradiol （E2） ，luteinizing hormone （LH） in serum were detected，and the LH/FSH ratio was calculated. mRNA expressions of Beclin-1， p62 and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 （LC3） in ovarian tissue were detected. The expressions of related proteins of PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway and autophagy in rat ovarian tissues were also detected. RESULTS Compared with blank group， the pathological damage and ultrastructural changes of the ovarian tissue in the model group rats were obvious， and a large number of autophagosomes could be seen in cells. The levels of T and LH and the LH/FSH ratio in serum， as well as mRNA and protein expressions of Beclin-1 and LC3， were increased significantly （P＜0.05）， while the levels of E2 and FSH in serum， as well as mRNA and protein expressions of p62 and the phosphorylation levels of PI3K， AKT and mTOR proteins in ovarian tissue， were significantly decreased （P＜0.05）. Compared with model group， the pathological damage of ovarian tissue in the administration groups was significantly reduced， the number of autophagosomes was smaller， and the expression levels of the above indicators were significantly reversed （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Huatan tongmai decoction can inhibit autophagy in ovarian granular cells by activating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway， regulate the secretion of sex hormones， alleviate pathological damage in ovarian tissues， and promote normal follicular development， thereby exerting an ameliorative effect on PCOS rats.

OBJECTIVE To explore the risk factors for central line-associated bloodstream infection(CLABSI)in the maintenance hemodialysis(MHD)patients based on the informatization surveillance system and establish and verify the risk prediction model so as to provide bases for early identification and prevention of CLABSI.METHODS A total of 300 MHD patients who were treated in hemodialysis center of the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from Jan.2020 to Dec.2023 were recruited as the research subjects and were randomly divided into the training set group with 210 cases and the validation set group with 90 cases in a 7∶3 ratio.The risk factors for the CLABSI were analyzed,the prediction model was established and verified.The performance of the model was evaluated by the area under the curve(AUC)of receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves and Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test.RESULTS Among the 300 MHD patients who were treated with central venous catheters,32 were diagnosed with CLABSI,and the incidence was 0.65 per 1,000 catheter days.Multivari-ate analysis showed that catheter indwelling time,repeated catheterization,previous history of catheter-related in-fection and diabetes mellitus were the risk factors for the CLABSI in the MHD patients(P＜0.05).The model based on the logistic regression equation was established as follows:logit(P)=-5.661+0.024 × catheter in-dwelling duration(week)+2.037 × repeated catheterization+1.546 × previous history of catheter-related infec-tion+3.391× diabetes mellitus.ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC of the training set was 0.916(95％CI:0.837 to 0.994),with the sensitivity 87.00％,the specificity 86.63％,Youden index 0.736;the AUC of the vali-dation set was 0.797(95％CI:0.632 to 0.962),with the sensitivity 77.78％,the specificity 82.72％,the Youden index 0.605.The model showed excellent discrimination and calibration degree.CONCLUSION The logistic regres-sion equation that is established based on the 4 risk factors,catheter indwelling duration,repeated catheterization,previous history of catheter-related infection and diabetes mellitus,shows remarkable predictive efficiency,and it can provide evidence for clinical screening and prevention of CLABSI.

Objective To construct a knowledge graph of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)prevention and control course,and evaluate its usability.Methods Based on the constructivist learning theory and the analyze-de-sign-develop-implement-evaluate(ADDIE)model,knowledge from various sources such as books,guidelines,and literature related to HAI prevention and control were integrated.The knowledge graph of HAI prevention and con-trol course were designed and constructed with the support of knowledge graph technology in Chaoxing Fanya plat-form.Thirty medical students were selected by convenience sampling method to try out the course knowledge graph.System usability scale and usage effect questionnaire were filled out to evaluate the usability of the knowledge graph.Results The knowledge graph of HAI prevention and control course contained 379 knowledge points asso-ciated with 520 test questions and 56 learning resources.After testing,the total score([70.50±12.20]points)was obtained for the usability of the knowledge graph.Among the four dimensions of the usage effect agreement ques-tionnaire,satisfaction,learning attitude,learning ability,and learning resource support accounted for 93.33％-96.67％,90.00％,93.33％-96.67％,and 83.33％-90.00％,respectively,with a high overall satisfaction rate.Conclusion The knowledge graph of HAI prevention and control course has good usability,which can realize students'personalized independent learning and improve their learning efficiency.

Objective To describe and evaluate the clinical studies of postoperative pain sensitization caused by sleep deprivation through the evidence map system,understand the distribution of evidence in this field,and provide reference for subsequent evidence research.Methods A computer-based search of PubMed,EMBASE,Cochrane library,Web of Science,CNKI,Wanfang Data,VIP and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database from inception to August 2023 was conducted to obtain intervent ion studies,observational studies and systematic reviews/Meta-analysis of postoperative pain sensitization caused by sleep deprivation.The research characteristics and methodological quality were analyzed and evaluated.The Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews,the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale(NOS)and the AMSTAR-2 scale were used to evaluate the quality of the included studies,and the evidence was comprehensively analyzed and displayed by means of bubble chart,table and text.Results A total of 35 observational studies(31 cohort studies and 4 case-control studies),15 randomized controlled trials and 4 systematic reviews/Meta-analyses were included.The number of publications increased rapidly after 2018 and peaked in 2022,and clinical studies in this field mainly fo-cused on cohort studies,with fewer randomized controlled trials and systematic reviews/Meta-analysis studies.The results of the evidence map showed that in terms of quality,22 studies were'high quality',24 studies were'medium quality',and 8 studies were'low quality'.Thirty studies showed that sleep deprivation could induce postoperative pain sensitization.Only 2 studies suggested that sleep disorders were not significantly asso-ciated with postoperative pain sensitization,and ten studies were uncertain whether sleep deprivation could in-duce postoperative pain sensitization.Conclusions Overall evidence shows that sleep deprivation can induce postoperative pain sensitization,but the evaluation dimensions are limited and the methodological quality of the included literature needs to be improved.More high-quality,large-sample and standardized clinical studies should be carried out in the future to provide better scientific basis for clinical work.

Objective To explore the current situation of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in patients in emergency rescue room and observation room,and analyze the causes.Methods Targeted surveillance was per-formed on patients in emergency rescue room and observation room of a tertiary first-class hospital in Xuzhou City from January 1 to December 31,2023 using prospective survey method.HAI,antimicrobial use,as well as invasive procedures and related infection rates were analyzed.Results The incidence of HAI in 540 patients was 0.19％(n=1),and the daily incidence of HAI was 0.54‰(1/1 841).The utilization rates of invasive ventilators,central ve-nous catheters,and indwelling urinary catheters were 6.79％(125/1 841),1.09％(20/1 841),and 2.93％(54/1 841),respectively.The incidences of ventilator-associated pneumonia,central line-associated bloodstream infec-tion,and catheter-associated urinary tract infection were 8.00‰(1/125),0(0/20),and 0(0/54),respectively.Pathogen detection rate before antimicrobial treatment was 99.22％(382/385).Conclusion The incidence of HAI in patients in emergency rescue room and observation room is low,the retention time of patients in rescue room is short,and pathogen detection of specimens before antimicrobial treatment is high.Patients in emergency rescue room and observation room are at high risk of HAI.It is necessary to carry out targeted surveillance on HAI to re-duce its incidence.

Objective To understand the application of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)quality control indi-cators and current status of HAI management in primary medical institutions in Jiangsu Province,and provide refe-rence and basis for primary medical institutions to improve HAI management quality and for health administrative departments to formulate HAI management relevant policies.Methods Data on HAI quality control indicators co-llected by Jiangsu Provincial Primary Healthcare Professional Quality Control Center from the first batch of 62 pri-mary sentinel medical institutions in the province were analyzed.Results of on-site inspections and assessments of 20 institutions were summarized and analyzed.Results From July 2023 to May 2024,a total of 145 814 inpatients were monitored,219 patients had 220 episodes of HAI.The incidence and case incidence of HAI were both 0.15％,and the main HAI site was upper respiratory tract(40.45％).The compliance rate and correct rate of hand hygiene were 81.34％(14.29％-100％)and 87.90％(18.46％-100％),respectively.The removal rate of surface pollu-tant from environmental objects was 77.24％(20.00％-100％),and the qualified rate of cleaning of device,appli-ances,and articles was 98.76％(10.00％-100％).The monitoring data records of quality control indicators in most primary healthcare institutions during on-site inspections didn't match the monthly data reported to the Jiangsu Provincial Primary Healthcare Professional Quality Control Center.Most healthcare workers in primary healthcare institutions lacked sufficient awareness and knowledge in infection prevention and control.Multiple HAI-related safety hazards existed in key departments of most primary medical institutions.Conclusion After nearly a year of continuous monitoring on HAI,the primary sentinel medical institutions have established their own data on the inci-dence of HAI.The compliance rate and correct rate of hand hygiene,as well as the removal rate of surface pollu-tants from environmental objects are still relatively low in some medical medical institutions,and there is much room for improvement.There is still a significant gap in terms of HAI prevention and control in some primary medical in-stitutions when referring to the standards.
